Zelena was at her house, playing with Baby Robin. Robin was inside her crib and Zelena was waving toy keys at her. Robin playfully touched the toy keys.
"You're gonna need a bigger play area soon" said Zelena.
Regina was visiting. Zelena had just finished explaining the situation with Robin's development to her. She left Robin to entertain herself with the toys for a few moments while she returned to sipping coffee.
"Well things are certainly a bit complicated" said Regina "I think one of the first things we need to do is get you an appointment with Archie".
Zelena groaned. She didn't enjoy touchy-feely talk about her feelings.
"Every parent who finds out their child has special needs goes through a sort of grieving process" Regina reasoned "Archie can help. He helped me a lot when I was a new parent. Bonding with a baby that I didn't carry in my womb had its challenges".
"Fine" Zelena huffed "but at least his fake education you gave him with your dark curse prepared him for helping adoptive mothers, my family is now dealing with something nobody has ever seen before. How can I know I won't completely fail".
"You will have a lot of support" said Regina "Me, Archie, the Charmings, and Emma will want to help more than ever now".
Zelena scowled, angrily.
"What makes you think I'll let Emma near my baby?" Zelena asked angrily "she's the cause of all this".
Robin tried to stand up, but fell on her bum. She made a gurgling sound.
"Really?" Asked Regina "Snow and Charming let you play with their baby and you were going to sacrifice him to cast a time spell stopping most of their loved ones from being born".
Zelena felt ashamed upon being reminded of her past wicked deeds but she tried not to let it show.
"Emma was the dark one at the time, she has more of an excuse than either of us do for the things we did. Cut her some slack".
Zelena went back to playing with the baby and smiled slightly. Regina also turned her attention to Robin.
